Across the UK, across continental North America, and around the world on the internet by

webcast and by podcast, my name is Howard Hughes and this is The Unexplained.

Here we are. We've landed, so we're now leisurely strolling our way up to a thousand

editions. I wonder when I'll get there. I couldn't even begin to speculate. Let's be

honest about that. How are you feeling about Christmas then approaching? Are you making

big preparations for it all? I kind of think that this one in this all-full year that's

You know? Does that make me sound really miserable? It's not supposed to. But let me know

how you plan to spend Christmas. Maybe you'll listen to some podcast. You might listen

to some of mine. It seems like only yesterday that I was doing number one and it's really

nice to hear from people who say, did you know how had I been listening to you since

Follow the link. You can send me an email from there if you'd like to make a donation

to the show that will be gratefully received. And if you have been one of the people who

have made a donation to the show recently, thank you very, very much. You know, we used

to say an awful lot and it's perfectly true. In the days when you could go to a place

and buy a cup of coffee, it was around about £2 or $2. Well, if you donate that instead

to The Unexplained, you'll get the whole pleasure, hopefully, of listening to, you know,

my show, which will take you longer than drinking a cup of coffee. You might not enjoy the

cup of coffee. You might not. You might not enjoy the show. But you know what I'm saying?

That the investment in this is doing something good and doing something that will last. And
